Halfway Normal

(3) 4-6 After two years of hospitalization, Norah begins middle school as a leukemia survivor. She wants to be a regular seventh grader--maybe join art club and have a crush on a boy--but her protective parents and the unwelcome attention from kids and teachers make normalcy difficult. Norah's voice is fresh and distinctive as she faces her new reality with a sense of humor.
